Manga titles

Please try to remember to link to the manga as Pokémon Adventures rather than Pokémon Special since we refer to all manga series by their VIZ Media and/or Chuang Yi names here (when available). Thank you! ^^ --ZestyCactus 01:30, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Ranger manga

Do you know if Pokémon Ranger - The Comic was ever published as a bound volume? Or were they all published online only? Thanks :) --ZestyCactus 14:07, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Okay cool, thanks for all the help :) --ZestyCactus 20:24, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Request

Can you help me with a few things? One, update this article for me... second, is it ok if you also make an article for Golduck, and possibly Porygon2? Obviously I'll confirm with CP, but it's a start. ^ht14 02:59, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

One more thing... keep conversations on one page... thanks. ^ht14 03:18, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Just wondering...

When you welcomed HELPME, did you copy and paste the template's code? ~~ Scyther Be Awesome! _{Bother me here.} 05:27, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, you did... when you welcome a new user, Ataro, all you need to do is write {{subst:welcome}} and (if you feel so inclined) a personal message such as "Welcome!" in the summary box. Copy-pasting can sometimes cause errors... not to mention it's more tedious. —darklordtrom 06:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

well you can't go through life without making errors right?

sorry about that Ataro 06:26, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations!

Congratulations! For your outstanding service to Bulbapedia's manga section you have been awarded the Golden Poliwhirl Award for July, 2010 by the Bulbapedia editorial board! Please place this template onto your userpage by putting {{User Award|GoldPoli|July, 2010}} among your userboxes.

For your work on Project Manga, this award is to be shared with Kaboomustdie. Thanks for your effort and well done. —darklordtrom 00:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Congratulations. Turtwig's A-B-Cs (talk | contribs) 01:06, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Congrats. You deserved it :). --☆CoolPikachu! 01:28, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Lol, yeah, I didn't see it coming, either, but I guess hard work always pays off. I was busy adding stuff to the Zuzu article though I had plans to message you here before (perhaps gloat? Hur hur), but anyway, congrats. (By the way, the Zuzu thing totally went bust because I got sick of the "Sry ur editz coodlnt be sayvved lawg out & Trai agen" thing, and did just that, and logged back in... only to forget to not overwrite the Pokemon templates at the top. >_>

Anyways, congratulations! Non-stop Hatred of Kabam 02:39, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

HOLY CRAP

I never actually saw this coming...thank you...

Help

Yo, I have a problem with editing my page. I registered my e-mail address, and I still fail to edit it. Help, please. A President Named C-Dawg.

yeah I'm not a mod..

but from what I've heard you have to do mainspace edits first... Ataro 07:21, 14 August 2010 (UTC)

Temper

I realise that I'm bringing up something from a few days ago, and I realise that some people are idiots, but in cases like this one just stay calm. If you can't do that, let someone else handle the situation. Cheers, —darklordtrom 22:22, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Hey

I know that both articles for Yanappu were created during the same time, but that doesn't give you the right to place a delete tag on someone else's userpage, even if they're the same. The right thing to do would be to inform them on their talk page. Also, the content to be delete shouldn't be replaced. Please remember that next time. —♥ Jello^talk 23:56, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Regarding Palkia's page

First of all, I didn't notice the information was on Palkia's species page, so sorry about bringing it up again. Second, I checked the Bulbapedia policy and didn't find that rule you mentioned listed. So where might it be located just out of curiosity and for future reference? Jo The Marten 00:02, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

I've seen the admins mentioning stuff like this several times.....Ataro 00:09, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Mmm, okay. I'm just not very active so I don't know everything that goes on around here all the time. Jo The Marten 00:44, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

eh it's alright we all make mistakes look at me I make em all the time Ataro 00:55, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Heh, well thanks for understanding. Jo The Marten 00:57, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

Talk pages

Hi Ataro. I realise talk pages are pretty much a free-for-all when it comes to spelling and grammar and stuff like that, but it would be really appreciated if you could keep your comments on the same line unless you have a good reason for breaking them up into paragraphs. It makes it a lot easier to read this way - and might even help you practise writing for the mainspace. Cheers, —darklordtrom 11:12, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, I'm just not into the whole paragraph thing...I find it easier to read by breaking into little parts so I don't mess up and read the same line twice...and it happens a lot Ataro 11:29, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Also, please try not to post comments in an archive page... >_> Ztobor 00:55, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

I was wondering

Do you have any idea why PS317 and PS325-PS328 are left unmade? I've always found it odd that they aren't made yet. ^Maverick_Nate 20:03, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

someone probably just forgot...I'll be making them soon after I finish making cover pages for the chapters that don't have any Ataro 20:07, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Got your message

Hey, I got your message, I know Sonic isn't a Pokémon, I've already learned my lesson. I'll keep it to myself. - unsigned comment from Pokedex493 (talk • contribs)

Your usertags...

...are being smushed due to two on the same row in the last row. Just thought I'd point it out. Ztobor 00:32, 2 September 2010 (UTC) I noticed, I just have no idea how to fix it..I'll try to do it sometime..Ataro 01:00, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

It's because the two at the bottom are in individual cells on the same row, so it forces them side by side. They need to be in the same cell, which puts them one on top of the other. Werdnae (talk) 01:30, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

So... should I fix it, or not? I don't want to go edit somebody's user page without permission. Ztobor 02:58, 2 September 2010 (UTC)

* Dr. Akihabara developed Porygon in the anime version.

Why did you erase it? It added it because there was no reference to Dr. Akihabara in the page of Porygon. Sawamular101 23:50, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

No resigning?

What does that mean? --HTMLCODER.exe@bulbapedia$_ /usr/bin/apache2 -k restart 16:03, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

It means if you forget to sign, you can't correct yourself. CuboneKing 01:27, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Oh, okay. Is it due to extra server strain? In that case correcting the "resign" gives even more strain :) If not, please give some link to rules or something - searching for "resign" turns up only one confused user who "didn't know he couldn't resign". It's not like I am bitter or anything, just want to know. --HTMLCODER.exe@bulbapedia$_ /usr/bin/apache2 -k restart 22:22, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

It's here. Hope this helps :) CuboneKing 02:33, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Oh, thanks, it does. This means I can {{unsigned}} myself :) --HTMLCODER.exe@bulbapedia$_ /usr/bin/apache2 -k restart 05:15, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

undid?

You recently undid something on electric tale of pikachu........but that was me rewording what i posted......did you think someone else did it or did I do something wrong? - unsigned comment from Angel10698 (talk • contribs) 04:12, 14 September 2010 UTC

You deleted an {{unsigned}} tag and changed your comment. If you wanted to add to it, you should have added it as an additional comment. Also, please sign your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~). Phantom♫Junkie 04:28, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

k i will add an aditional comment next time. sorry i keep forgetting to sign......i will try to remember nxt time.Angel10698 05:24, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

Edit Summary

I'm sorry, but your edit summary fixing my typo on Yorterri was kind of rude. I was typing quickly and missed a letter, but you didn't have to laugh and call it a fail. Phantom♫Junkie 20:13, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Uploading

try it now. ^Maverick_Nate 18:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

thank you very much Ataro 18:20, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Keldeo

Well, I haven't read the Three Musketeers, though this does make me want to, but I think Keldeo is part of the other 4, they all have the same special ability and signature move (though Keldeo one level later), so I wouldn't call them a trio. --☯ *Ɣℯ№ӎօṫհ* ☯ 22:37, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes but in the story he isn't really counted as one (hence the three musketeers) Ataro 22:39, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

No one's arguing against the basis and inspiration being the Three Musketeers, but I'm saying for the sake of Pokémon it's part of the set. I think it's awkward just leaving it out like that. In the other cases of related Pokémon in Legendary trio it's the leader who's excluded (which if you take the reference strongly would be wrong if he's an original member of the bunch), but Keldeo left out just leaves him as a legendary, non-leader, seemingly oxymoronically unimportant (but of course he is because he's a legendary) all alone, it's just wrong, like he's not cool enough because he's based on d'Artagnan. They should either all be there (which is wrong because there 4, not 3) or none of them should - "All for one, and one for all". --☯ *Ɣℯ№ӎօṫհ* ☯ 23:08, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Pikachu (Pokémon) FAC vote

Sorry if I am wrong about this but someone, either you or Venemoth, posted under the support section on this page and did not change the number of support votes in the section title. Looking at the history of the page makes me think this was you. It's not a big deal it's just that if you do not change the number of support votes then your vote does not count. If you just wanted to post a comment on the page but did not want to cast a vote there is a section specifically for comments at the bottom of the page. Please change the number of support votes if you did want to vote. Thank you--Alex726_{contributions} 15:21, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm just wondering...

Where did these images come from? Are there more? I kind of need to know for my page. --SnorlaxMonster 11:16, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/showthread.php?t=53019&page=1152 from this months corocoro (that no one cares about) Ataro 19:28, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

So did this come out 1st October? Or is there some date before that? --SnorlaxMonster 12:51, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Please ;( I begging you

Please, could you unlock picture uploading at least for a short period of time to edit pictures from BW005, cuz i have some very cool pictures of pokemon and attacks, so please... Just for uploading BW005, then if you want you lock uploading again... User:Salazar12

Well, Ataro is a Jr admin like me. Jello is our Sr Admin and Nate is our chief. Sorry but archives can't be unlocked now, we still have a lot of work to do. So, it's not possible. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 04:13, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

I will stop when you unlock the upload then i will ad a Leer picture and you will be sorry... - unsigned comment from Milotic.ho (talk • contribs)

Answer

I didn't see any kind of statement that it would be that move. Anyway, in case you're sure tell that to this guy too. --FinnishPokéFan92 08:51, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Before you go apeshit at me...

I just want to say that it made more sense that the names came from Trident, Tripod, and Tricorn, Given that the badge they give out is the TRI badge and that they're brothers.--ForceFire 04:11, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I wasn't going to...Ataro 04:13, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

If you're going to use an edit summary like this, at least tell the user why they've been reverted. —darklordtrom 07:45, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

I thought it was obvious.....Ataro 07:53, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Not always to new users. —darklordtrom 09:39, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Manga question

You seem to know a lot about the manga, so I guess I'll start taking my questions to you. In PS085, Agatha says that she was the one that commanded the Shellder and Machop to attack the Gyms. Does this make them her Pokemon? Littlmiget123 18:25, 28 October 2010 (UTC)

Nope, Remember how she controlled Bruno? If I had to guess then that's how she controlled the Pokemon that's not her type Ataro 18:31, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
